DENVER -- Rockies third-base coach Stu Cole was taken to the hospital after being struck in the head by a ball in batting practice prior to Tuesday night's game against the Cardinals. Tests were negative, and Cole is expected to re-join the team on Wednesday.
Infielder Cristhian Adames was taking ground balls and tossed a ball in, but that ball was struck by a batted ball and hit Cole.
First-base coach Eric Young moved to third base, while special assistant Vinny Castilla served as the first-base coach on Tuesday.
